Return of the Girl Racer

Bribing kids usually works. DD1 has cleared her room and cleaned the bathroom sink up without being asked today. Said I would pay 50p for room so she had money making head on until distracted with friends. Doesnt work so much on the younger two their room is still a BIG tip.

Great idea to have a good soak in the bath well deserved.

Good morning all. Another late night last night but I cooked a lovely meal for us and really enjoyed J's company. He text me this morning at 5.15 am to say thank you. A bit early but I was pleased that I was on his mind!!!

Have had another sale on e-bay this morning, have sold an empty mobile phone box. I've now got 4 parcels to post off in the morning. My July total is OK, but it's not as good as the totals I've had in previous months. Have currently got about 70 items on e-bay but a lot of them are only for a few pounds.

Have had another busy morning, caught up with the ironing (until the latest lot of washing dries anyway) and have had a general tidy up around the house. Am going to drag the rug from the living room out into the garden to let the air get at it and then hopefully I'll be able to polish the floor.

The plans this afternoon are simple, lay on the settee and try and finish the 2 books I'm reading.

Well what a day today's turned out to be. Have had another Buy it Now sale on E-bay so I've packed that up to go. Also had a phone call off J today , he's really down. He's got a really big meeting tomorrow and he's worried about it. Ended up driving the 20 miles to his house where I cleaned and done his ironing. Returned home only to find DS had fallen and split his head open.

Luckily it looked a lot worse than it was and after some bathing he's almost as good as new.

I did manage to finish one of my books today (i'd sold it on Amazon Yesterday afternoon so I had to find out the end). Only got one more to finish now and I'm hoping I'll finish that tomorrow.

AM going to have a nice relax in the bath now.

Hi GR
Crikey I bet that was scary with DS. Boys will be boys. Your July total is coming on really nicely. Just shows how much money there is for the taking. I know it's a faff sometimes getting it on ebay but it's worth it. It all adds up.
Good to see all going well with you and J. I bet he really appreciates the support from you.
Hope today was a good one for you hun.
Catch you tomorrow. Keep well

Hi guys, been feeling abit down the last couple of days so not posted much. Monday went really well with J and he won his case which was fabulus news. Went shopping with my niece yesterday and had a really lovely day but 'life' starting to get me down a bit. Have got to back to work today and really don't feel like it. Think the old PMS is kicking in as I've been quite tearful!!!!

Keeping_Positive

Darned PMS try to take it eay GR and be aware that youll be overemotional that what I (am) trying to do. I try to remember that I am likely to overreact to things so hold back. My mood was low at the start of the week so I am hoping the worst has passed but today is usually a bad day so fingers crossed we both get through the next few days.

Thanks Wendy, have done nothing but cry this morning. DS doesn't want to go to school because 'all his friends are staying home cos they aint doing any lessons' DD hasn't got anything to wear to the school disco this afternoon, the cat has got a cold, I don't want to go to work, haven't got anything for luches so had to give DD money to buy some

Everything just seems to be going wrong at the moment for me. WHy is it some people always seem to fall on their feet whilst I always seem to fall on my a$$ ?

((((hugs)))) GR I hope you day has improved. It doesnt help when the kids chuck all their worries at you as well.
